Kestra - Workflow Automation Platform
Kestra is an open-source, distributed, and scalable workflow automation platform. It allows you to orchestrate and schedule complex sequences of tasks across various technologies and environments. With over 600 plugins, it offers a flexible alternative to tools like Airflow, n8n, Rundeck, and Zapier.
Project Introduction
Summary
Kestra is a powerful open-source workflow automation and orchestration platform designed to simplify the creation, scheduling, and monitoring of complex data, application, and business workflows.
Problem Solved
Modern data pipelines, application deployments, and business processes often involve complex dependencies across disparate systems and technologies. Manually managing and scheduling these sequences is prone to errors, difficult to scale, and lacks visibility. Kestra provides a unified platform to define, execute, and monitor these workflows reliably.
